E. H. AULL, EDITOR.
Friday, April 21, 1922.
Easley must be a mighty good town
and a fine town in which to print a
newspaper. The merchants know a
good thing when they see it. The
last issue of the Easley Progress carries
three full page ads and one double
page ad besides a number of other
advertisements, and the paper has
only eight pages in all. And this is
not an exception, for we recall that
very frequently the paper comes with
1 1 1 . IaL
its columns xaicen up wim <tua- ju^
like the last issue. A good town sure.
And live merchants.
Every good citizen whether he
feels able to be a contributing member
of the chamber of commerce or
not can give his help in saying good
things, and his moral support to the
organization, and help President Eskridge
to do things worth while to
make Newberry a better place in
which to live. Some of us may not
feel financially able in these times to
pay the amount of the annual dues,
but none of us is so poor that he can
not give his influence and his support
to the organization and encour
age it 121 doing ot tftose tnmgs tnai
are for the making of a good town,
and sometimes a -word of encouragement
is really more valuable than
financial support. And this does not
mean that the organization can run
without money. By no means. It
takes money to run almost anything
in this day. So all who can should
be active and contributing members
of this organization.

Mr. E. A. Wheeler of Little Mountain
having read what The Herald
and News had to say about the alfalfa
from the Cloverdale farm near
Pomaria, sends us a sample of alfalfa
from his farm at Little Mountain
with this remark: "I am sending
you a sample of my alfalfa which
measures 46 inches. Now, if Mr. E. S.
. Shealy of Cloverdale '-an beat this
^ I know he will have to sew two
+?ero+hor tn mfllce one this high."
?W6WV"? ? - ?
Well, all we have to say is, that this
is good business, this business of
^growing alfalfa and corn and clover
Band the things that we can eat and
^^^nirn into something to eat, and that
will at the same time enrich our soil.
We are pleased to see this pleasant
rivalry and this interest in the growing
of alfalfa. We passed along by
Cloverdale farm on Tuesday in our
rounds among the schools and really

mudd#- and bad and we were not in
much humor for inspecting even a
fine clover and alfalfa farm. We did
not know about Mr. Wheeler's farm
until we reached home and found his
specimen of alfalfa. We a*e not going
to act as judge as to which one
has the better, but only say it is good
business.
One thing that attracted our attention
as we passed along by Cloverdale
farm, in fact we arg always pleased
to drive through a section such as
this where there are small farms and
all worked up to a high state of cultivation,
but the thing that struck us
on Tuesday was the fine field of corn
on the left of the road that we took
to be part of Adam Aull's farm. And
next to it and nice corn also we saw
Sligh Wicker plowing his field. It is
a pretty sight to look out over this
field of black rich soil and see the
corn just coming up to a good stand,
and greasy green, and then there was
cotton up to a good stand there also,
and Irish potatoes. It looked like living.
We saw nothing of Adam. In
fact we 'believe it is a remarkable
thing that you never see Adam plowing
or working in his field and yet he
always makes a fine crop and his
fields look nice, but when he works
the people have never found ouf, and
yet he always has plenty of money
and plenty of good cheer and plenty
of good things to eat and plenty of
time to serve his friends. This is a
fine section right along here.
Go to it, boys, it is good business.
Let us raise plenty to eat and to feed
the beasts that we have and then we
will have the finest country in the
world. Nature has done all that she
can for us. It is up to us to take
advantage of the opportunities that

WE ARE GLAD
Not that exactly, but you know
you are human, and you like to feel
that you have company, even when
you are wrong. We had oeen saying
^ all ouf lives, whenever we had occasion
to use the word, "Ge-noa" and
when the other day we heard a young
school marm say "Gen-oa" at first
we did not exactly know what she
vas talking about, but when we
caught on we stole away quietly to d<
the dictionary and found that was h
the dictionary pronunciation, and we a?
I had just kept the whole matter all to ti
ourselves, but now here conies so dis- h<
- criminating a critic, and so good an t?
authority as the editor of the Green- al
< wood Index-Journal, admitting that bi
j he had always pronounnced the word tl
I the same as we, we feel better, and H
I "
are glad so that we can publicly ad- A
mit that we were in ignorance of the a]
prevailing pronunciation, and which It
seems to have the sanction of the si
' dictionary. Never too old to learn H
j and to admit that we do not know it fi;
! all, is our motto still. bi

j We are pleased to iearn of the or- ej
; ganization of the creamery, but to G
j be sure that it will succeed there must sc
j be cooperation on the part of those m
' for whose benefit it has been organ- ei
J
izea, and they are the ones who are j bi
in position to furnish the cream, j
Some one said the other day that in
i order for this creamery to succeed it u:
| must have the product of around one hi
! thousand cows, and the farmers wno j it
1 furnish them should also have sever- w
! al thousand hogs so that the milk af- sp
I ter taking away the cream could be ri
turned into swine. We cotton farm- P.
ers have a lot of things to learn w

The great need of this age is tem-joi

1 the use of whiskey but temperance ^

The human race can not endure the
i strain and live if it should be kept w
up for any great length of time. j

j The weather of twenty years ago "

that was followed by cold. We have tn

colder than it was. If rainy weather 0,

TO WALHALLA AND RETURN ar
According to statement already w

Friday and Saturday and journeyed te
i to Walhalla with my father and mo- m
H tVio TTast.er I to

time with their son, the Rev. W. B. ar

Aull and family. He is the pastor J'

and you know the Easter time is a P2
great occasion with Lutherans every- ^
wiere, or should Je, and in fact it
; should be a great event with all peo- w
j pie who believe in the Risen Lord, Pi

j *D

either going or returnnig, except that w

! The man at the corner of Main street w
where you turn out into the Belton 50

road did the job for me, and was very "

i I left Newberry at G o'clock Friday. w
1 morning and the run was fine to |a1
i Chappells, and while the road from'01
j there to the river is bad, yet it is not w
I'as bad as it has oeen as Mr. Martin
has had it temporarily worked up | ^
: but we can stand that bad piece since
! p
we see that the contract to build it is. ^
to be let on the 9th of May, and in ;ai
a very short time we should have a;w
good road all the way to Greenwood. ! *'r
; I arrived at home at 720. It may be 0
i of some interest to those who travel ^
TH
i sometimes to know distances, and so 1
T I P
. I om (miner to gnvp von <*nmp mpasurp- ^
! merits that I took on this trip. The 0
J speedometer was set in my back yard ^
: and the measurements are as follows: S(
Dyson (my father's home) 27.1 ^
miles; Ninety Six 34.8; Greenwood "
; 44.8; Hodges 53.1; Donnalds 61.9;
1 Honea Path 67.3; Anderson 84.7; S
Sandy Spring 94.1; Autun 95; Pen- a
dleton 100; Clemson 105; Seneca a
112.8; Walhalla 122.5. In taking the
, exact distance between Newberry and
> any of the given points there should ^
; be taken into consideration two little
etours that 1 made, one from the
ighway to my father's home which
ilds about two miles, and one from
le highway above Anderson to the
ume of Mr. H. C. Summers, a dismce
of about one mile. The road
il the way .is fine except the little
it from Chappells to the river, and
len about 6 miles from Donnalds to
onea Path, which I understand is in
Dbeville county and 1 understand
!so that this is to be built very soon.
certainly needs that something
lould be dope to it. The road from
onea Path to Walhalla is especially
ne, and is wide and smooth aad the
?st way is to go by Belton instead
f turning off a few miles above Honi
Path. The Dixie highway in
reenwood county needs to have
>me work done on it. It seems to
e that the Anderson roads are wid
* than the Greenwood or the Newerry
roads.
I made no stop from the old home
ntil we reached Honea Path and
sre\>nly for a few minutes to speak
> my friend Geo. Moore, and then
e made a brief stop at Anderson to
)eak to Geo. Browne and Mrs. Pat
ck of the Daily Mail. At Honea
ath I met a gentleman who said he
as a first cousin of Mr. J. R. Thornm
of Newberry. Seems to me he
iid his name was Traynham. I made
stop also at the fine country home
? Mr. H. C. Summers just this side
' Pendleton. I told Clint over at i
ie meeting of the Red Men that I
as going to take this trip and that
would make a short stop with him.
re reached there just a little after i
e dinner hour, but as we had lunch i
ong we just asked Mr. Summers to i
t us rest and eat our own lunch,
id while he wanted to fix dinner we
ould not permit that. My mother
id father enjoyed the rest and were
?ry much refreshed for the remaind-s
of the trip. Mr. and Mrs. Foster
e living with Mr. Summers and his
'other and keeping house for them.
learned that Mrs. Foster is a daughr
of my old friend Captain J. C.
;ribbling whom I used to know very
ell and to whose farm I went when j
printed that agricultural paper
ime years ago. The Summers have j
le of the most delightful homes in
,e state, and every convergence that i
)u could desire. It is one of the I
d summer homes of the Adgers of !
harleston that Mr. Summers, Sr.,
)ught some years ago and but rently
the house has been overhauled
id now it is delightful summer or
inter. It is a most pleasant place to
end a few hours, and for that matr
to spend a longer time. Mr. Sumers
makes you feel that he is glad j
see you and Mrs. Foster is nice j
id nleasant and so is Mr. Foster and i
I
tck too though I did not see him.
was not only a great rest for the
irty but a real pleasure to spend
is little time with these good folk,
fter resting for an hour and a half
ith Mr. Summers and the good peoe
at his home we drove on to Peneton
and made a brief call to see
\ B. Aull and his family. Mr. W.
. Aull and his wife are former citi- j
>ne of "NJpwhprrv and Mr. Aull is a
>phew of my father. It will be
>od news to their many friends and
datives in Newberry to know that i
;ey are doing well and are in good '
ialth. I intended to stop to see
en M. Aull, son of W. B. Aull, -but
e did not feel that we had time. I
d make a brief step at Clemson so
:at the folk might speak to William
ull and Hubert Aull who are of the
.culty of' this institution. They J
ere glad to see us. William is the i
n of W. B. Aull at Pendleton and
ubert is a son nof John C. Aull of
omaria. John C. Aull has a son
ho is a student of Clemson, John C.,
v. but we did not see him. I have
ien in the papers since coming home
lat Hubert is to be married some
me in the coming summer. Well,
tey are bright boys and are making
)od at Clemson. I am glad.
Our next stop was Walhalla and
e reached that city at the foothills
; about 4:30 o'clock and I told some
le that my little car made the run
ithout changing gear for any
rade except one of the hills between
happells and the river, and I am so
"i"^ nf it that T have to tell it.
oming back I made the trip alone
> the old folk wanted to spend a
eek, and they could not have made
le trip with me any way on account
i the rain. I did not mention it,
ut I had in the party Miss Julia
immerman, my niece, and Miss
onnie Crouch of Johnston, a friend
f Miss Timmerman, who was visiting
er. They remained in Walhalla alx
It began to rain a little on me as
passed Mr. Clint Summers' and
lere had been heavy rains all the
ay down and the road was not as
ood as the going trip, but I made it
11 right and reached Newberry
round 6 o'clock.
On Saturday we drove with my
rother over to Westminster and I
rant to say what I have said before
I , . , ^ . f
J that this section is one of the finest j so
farming sections of South Carolina, j
And it seemed to me that the farm- j
ers up this side are further along, di
with their farming operations than j th
i we are down here. The farms look , th
[nice and there are fine homes all
I - . ... j
J along tfte way nicely painteu ami in
everything has the appearance of or
good living. I saw some cotton up T1
to a good stand and just lots of corn th
planted, but then these farms up this tv
side are owned and worked largely ri;
by white people. And there is just, rn
lots of fine oats and wheat all along j
the road from Newberry to Walhal-,'

I iL
It was a fine trip and I am glad l1
that the folk stood it so well, and that
i
they enjoyed it, and it afforded me
a great deal of pleasure to give them De
the pleasure of going. In fact there. ^

I wanted to say that while in West- j le
minster I called on Editor Gossett if
and found him happj and contented, j te
I have often wished that I was a prac- J fo

and had a paper just like Editor Gos-i ta
sett has in a small town nad could do l m
my own work and then I could be ! r.i

The fact of the matter is no man has at
any (business in the newspaper game i
in a small town even the size of New-!
berry who is not in position to take! th
up any department of the work from sc
the printer's devil on down to the fa
editor of the paper, because other- in
wise he is so depenndent upon some- T1
one else that he never knows just pe
where he is at. You can't just step th
out on the street an4 pick up a lino- gi
type operator or a j'ob printer like th
you can some one to sell calico or iy
carry a bundle. So long as I was in !
charge of the paper, however, the i
boys were always loyal to the shop ; Tl
and we hae sent outcome of the best;

Women Voter* and Club Rolls t
The county chairman of the Dem- t
ocratic party of Newberry county has. t
issued a called for all clubs to meet j 1
on Saturday, April 22. When a sim- j s
ilar call was issued two years ago, j
women were not entitled to member- v
ship in these clubs, the 19th amend- s
ment not having been ratified at that11
time. This year it is not only the c
privilege but the duty of every worn-1 a
an whose name is on a ward or a j s
precinct club roll to attend the meet- g
ing of her respective club on Satur- i:
day of this week, ana casi ner vine c
for delegates to the County Demo-, i
cratic convention in May. j c
This is election year in South Car- 1
olina for county and state officers, c
and the primary in August amounts I
practically to an election, in this a
| state. No one may vote in the pri- a
i mary unless his or her name is on a r
; club roll. Those who did not enroll t
in 1921 must do so on or before the J
~ * * ' ? ? r\OCt
i 4th Tuesday in JUiy, lvll, m (
/ , .
to vote in the August primary. i r
This promises to be a momentous i
year in South Carolina politics. To t
those of you who have a sen, a bro- s
ter, or a husband?are you entirely j i
satisfied, for instance, with the way t
the prohibition law is being enforced? \ s
If not, then arm yourself with your f
privilege to help put into office men 1"
who will enforce it. j i
Many of you appeared before the j
county registration board about j P
eighteen months ago for registration | c
I tickets. Those tickets do not allow ,?
'' you to vote in the primary; they have ' r
j to do only with the general election j c
! in November. I '
During the World war, the terni|t

i ning the war. Certainly no right
minded woman cares to be classed ?
with "slackers;" but just as surely
as she fails to do her part to put into
i office in South Carolina highminded,

understand some "f the practical c

towards the approaching state
campaign which will result in the v
election of state officials, a house of ^
represenntatives, many senators and ^
no doubt a great army of county officials
this fall.
South Carolina being a one-party s1
state, the democratic orimarv ex- o
